[UK-CONTEST] Individual Short Contest Callsigns

[Nigel G3TXF]

Hello UK Contesters,

There's already a strong whirl-wind around these SCC
proposals. I expect that it could soon turn into quite a
storm!

One further (small) thought: If the Three As Contest Group's
long held M5A callsign is summarily chopped at the end of
the year and then later re-assigned to some other lucky
group, will I then be able to sell him my stock of unused
M5A QSLs? I do hope so.

73 - Nigel G3TXF
Three As Contest Group : G0AAA and M5A.

When our club applied for a SCC recently it was with a view
to individual members being able to use it in addition to
club multi-op operations; nothing on the hfcc web site
indicates this as 'abuse' as some have suggested.

So the above means a member can cite a score with a club SCC
in support of that individual's SCC application but not as
support to maintain the existing club short call? Seems
odd.....
